I’m continuing on my merry little way, showcasing favorites from personal photography sessions and mentoring sessions throughout the year 2014. I call myself an addicted photographer, well, because, I am ALWAYS shooting. That’s why I’m still not done showcasing my personal work! We are finally nearing the last quarter of 2014, and today I’m showing you a few shoots I had with good friends, one in Arbor Hills in Plano, three series of photos taken in Flower Mound and in Trophy Club, Texas, and one (two actually, but that’s a long story, but let me just say that it’s good, if you are going to travel 1.5 hours, check your camera battery before you go), in the gorgeous hills of Davis, Oklahoma (Turner Falls), where we had a magnificent old castle to shoot in, as well as beautiful waterfalls and even a little bit of Autumn color.

Fall in Texas isn’t quite what it is in other parts of the world, but we were able to capture little snippets of color in our photographs.

We are still strolling along through a visual picture of the various mentoring and photo-playdate images I took in 2014, and today I’ll showcase a few of my favorites from photography mentoring sessions during the Summer and Fall of 2014.

dawn runyon -Beautiful work! I had won the Limitless seat, but couldn’t afford to attend. Sad I won’t be able to meet you and Jackie and learn firsthand from you both. You two are amazing photographers! Have fun for those that are going.

Okay, now back to my regularly scheduled blogging of personal images and mentoring images from a year of photography – 2014. I find myself still in the middle of Summer in our journey, so we need to get cracking on these blog posts before THIS Summer catches up to us!

These pictures were taken at Stone Creek, in Flower Mound, Texas, right near my house. It was after meeting here several times with local photographers, that I developed many of my strong and amazing friendships in Texas.

Here I am again, for another month collaborating with other talented artists and sharing some Lensbaby images from the past month. These particular images I took while on a day trip from Dallas to Austin, stopping in Georgetown, Texas, to see the yards full of bright red poppies, especially the yard in front of the teal house! It was beautiful, but alas, it was in the middle of the day in bright sun! I have found that a Lensbaby lens is the PERFECT cure for the full-sun blues, since I love the effect in all kinds of lighting.

To continue on this little circle of Lensbaby love, go visit Victoria Hederer Bell for some more delicious eye candy.

I’m thrilled to be part of a brand-new blog circle with a group of amazing photographers. We are posting 15 pictures from the last month, on the 15th of every month. As a child photographer and photography mentor, I am never short on photographs of my children and their friends (I shoot every day!), and this gives me a reason to show them off to the world … and not be a year behind in posting them!!! lol – yeah, yeah, I know that I am still wallowing in August 2014 in my personal photography series ….

Anyway, so here is what I’ve been up to, among other things, this month.

Next up in the blog circle: Sally Ann Field (she has a super cool name) Enjoy the eye candy and be sure to follow all the talented ladies in the circle! <3
